Trying To Save Fuel

[Jack Zipper Zerkie]

:?Trying to save fuel ? Starting to look at not using the truck mount as much ,looking at using a Steamin Demon or the U.S. Products Agitator 20 same type as the Steamon Demon. I know its not a truck mount but might okey? Does any have any info. as to if you have tried either of the units? Thank You Jack Z. Cape Coral Fl.

OK.. Here fuel is about $3.50 per gal.

A few months ago it was $2.50 per gal.

I don't know what kinda TM you run. But I burn about 1.5 gals per hour.

So for every hour it was costing me $3.75
It is now costing me $5.25.

OK lets say the avg job is 2 TM hours. (it is not but lets say)

TM fuel costs have increased. $3.00 on the avg job.

OK... is it worth working with a portable to save $3.00 per job? NO.. Not for me. Find a way to cover it.



But. I don;t know what a Florida TM is.. So maybe it is costing you a lot more.

HIGH FLOW BABY!

It's got a learning curve, like anything, pretty easy to use once you get used to it. I used a TM for 10 yrs.

Going to the gas station still SUCKS!

Do not cut corners on things that make you money. Do the right things to save $$ on being smart and efficient like Regular oil and air filter changes, proper tire pressure, don't drive like you're doing time trials at the race track, schedule jobs in the same area's on the same days, etc. and you will offset rising costs easily.
